Platforms and shoes with wheels may not be worn.
• Hats, headgear, or any head covering will not be permitted except when approved by the Principal.
• Clothing can be purchased from any retailer or vendor.
• School administrators have the final authority to decide if clothing complies with the rules.
• Parents and students should check with their school about additional shirt colors that are allowed.
